There have been a few posts so far on folks best farming spots for Lovely Charms (so they can get the elusively pink Swift Lovebird - it's BoE and sell-able in case you have been under a rock the last few days), so who am I not to add mine? Here's the list I know of so far:

Then while perusing around the internet I overheard the chatter of Rokir in Icecrown. So I tried. And succeeded. At nearly 400 p/h (I ran for 20ish minutes and got 130...so X3= 390). Please forgive my video, it's not a strength of mine (and the music I put on there got deleted due to copywright...go figure). At least it gives you the idea of who/what/how/where to pull this off:

You might notice during the video I barely have time to loot, and you really don't need to (the mobs from what I have seen are 10'ish silver with the exception of a few slower spawns that just kinda fall into my range of fire)...that is, unless you want to give up free gold...

Basically, just kill Rokir when he pops (try to allow him to spawn his green ooze-looking things) and kill everything in sight. There is a crew that spawns in front of him that is about a 30'ish second spawn after death.

Best place I have found for both farming these and Grisly Trophies for Darkmoon Faire is during the Fireland dailies. I can't remember the name of the quest, but the one where you're wiping the blue glowing runes up off the floor in the cave. What you do is to stand on one of the blue glyphs and wait for 5 or 6 of the mobs to swarm around you. Then, click the rune to cause it to kill the mobs. Do this all the way around leaving one glyph intact, leave the cave and come back in and all the glyphs will be back. I farmed all the Grisly Trophies and several hundreds of Lovely Charms in just around an hour.
